Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) helicopters will be conducting low-level night flying operations in a 35 nautical mile radius (approximately 65 kilometers) around the Nakiska Ski Hill from June 5 to 18, 2025.
During this period members of the public may see or hear helicopters in the Kananaskis area between the hours of 10 pm and 6 am at an altitude of 2000 feet or less. Flight crews may also be observed conducting operations and landing procedures in designated areas.
This readiness training is a critical part of the Canadian Armed Forces preparations to support the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in providing security for the upcoming 2025 G7 Leaders' Summit. These exercises ensure our personnel are fully prepared to help deliver a safe and secure environment for all participants - before, during and after the event.
We thank the public for their understanding as the Canadian Armed Forces provide support to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police-led Integrated Safety and Security Group, ensuring a safe and secure G7 Summit for all participants and communities.
